1ManRaid Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 If we can cut the bad injury luck in half, we steamroll the league with 15 wins and the #1 seed. People love pinning the weak playoff performance on McD and put him on the hot seat, but we had about 312 legitimate reasons to be gassed out come playoff time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillyG Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 One from each division: AFCE: New England finishes 10-7 and makes WC. Having a true OC is the difference AFCN: Steelers finish 10-7 miss playoffs. Pickett takes leap forward. AFCS: Houston give Jacksonville a run for their money for division crown AFCW: Sean Payton flops in Denver. Move on from Wilson after season NFCE: Giants finish last in division. Danny Dimes takes steps backwards. NFCN: Packers finish 9-8 clinch WC. Love proves capable as mid level starter. NFCS: Arthur Smith finally figures out how to use Pitts. Falcons win division by 3 games. NFCW: Purdy was a flash in the pan. Sam Darnold leads 49ers to division crown, deep playoff run before his mistakes cost team SB appearance. Bonus: AFCCG: Buffalo at Kansas City NFCCG: Dallas at Philadelphia Super Bowl: Buffalo vs Dallas Picking 1st overall next year: Arizona Coaches Fired: Kevin Stefanski Dennis Allen Ron Rivera Brandon Staley Robert Saleh 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you are wrong I just want to hear your logic out. fortunately, through the power of the world wide interwebs, I dont' have to be in bar in Rochester...(but that would be cool) First...let's remember these are supposed to be BOLD..... 1. Washington makes the playoffs. IMO, the NFC is very weak, and even with two of the best NFC teams in their division (Dallas and Philly) the Commanders still have a pretty favorable schedule, from finsihing las in the division last season, even though they were basically .500. They have what I consider a strong D...and I know Sam Howell was a 5th round draft pick and is unproven, but he was on a 1st round trajectory for a lot of his college career and I like Eric Bienemy having a shot to instill some zeal in the commander offense. I think the Giants overachieved by A LOT last season...and are due for a step back this year. Given the very weak field and schedule...I can see a path to the playoffs here that will surprise folks. Keep in mind...there are always a couple teams from year to year no one has playoff expectations for, that rise up. The Giants last season....is the Commanders this year. 2. Bengals miss the playoffs. This one...BOLD....is the opposite of the above prediction. The AFC is a guantlet and the AFC NORTH....is the hardest division in football IMO. Baltimore nearly beat, and should have beaten cincy in the playoffs....and they get a healthy, happy Lamar back, with improved targets and an offense that should be more opened up. At any rate, Bmore is a tough out on any given sunday. Pittsburgh managed to have a winning record while suffering injuries and breaking in a new QB....who showed himprovement as the year went on. I think they'll be even more competitive this year with Watt back and Pickett a year seasoned. I think their draft was a home run as well. Cleveland is a pretty good roster...and if Watson can regain any sort of form.....they also will be tough...plus they just always play the Bengals well no matter what lately. That is a true hell for the Bengals to have to emerge out of. Plus playing a 1st place schedule....and continued O line problems....and you'll all see how awful Orlando Brown is to boot. I think the line is WORSE than last year. Not much margin for error. The Bengals surprisingly miss the post season. 3. Saints go 12-5 Not as bold as the first 2...but Saints in a bad NFC...in a bad division overall....with the best QB...and relatively good roster....seems like a chance to make hay. 4. Cardinals go 0-17 Maybe not that bold..they are odds on favorites to land the no.1 overall pick....but I think the roster is rancid enough to enteratain losing all 17 games. I think IF they capture the 1/1 in the draft...they will race to the podium in January and draft a new QB, and move on from Murray. 5. Steelers go 12-5 So...you might say the Steeler have more or less the same hell to endure that the Bengals do...and that's correct, but I think Tomlin is a better coach, and can naviagate the division and a somewhat easier schedule. Tomlin can win tough division games. I think with an ascending QB and roster, they surprise. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Division winners: Browns Jags Bills Chiefs Jags are paper tigers but advance and play strong in playoffs Eagles &Giants regress, Washington improves but Eagles win East Saints win South 9ers & Lions win divisions Jags & Chiefs game is early - Jags win due to Jags defense NFL rushing yards up for year in YPG and season totals depiste YPC being lower on average 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royale with Cheese Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Deshaun Watson will be booed off the field before Halloween. Stefanski will not make it through the season because someone needs to be the scapegoat for being mediocre when you paid all that money to Watson. James Cook will lead the NFL in ypc. Dalton Kincaid leads the Bills in TD catches this year. Ed Oliver will get 8 sacks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frostbitmic Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 A 70 yard FG will be made this year. Selling a home game to London and losing a game they'd win in Buffalo costs the Bills the AFC East title. Super Bowl = Eagles 33 - Bengals 31 Bill Belichick won't be caught cheating this season. The Raiders end the season with Tom Brady as QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corta765 Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Going bold alphabetically, not doing everyone because not everyone is bold ARZ- goes 1-16 with only win against ATL BAL- miss the playoffs despite Lamar playing all year as division attrition and WC tie breaker vs Jets haunts them CAR- wins division at 10-7 CHI- only go 6-11 and Fields ends up being a more glorified runner then passer and again CHI has to ask what to do at QB DAL- make the SB DET- fail to win division and barely make playoffs at 9-8 (MIN wins again at 10-7) DEN- win the AFC W at 11-6 GB- go 5-12 as the bottom falls out for real and Love is not the answer. welcome to QB purgatory JAX- take AFC 1 seed at 13-4 LAC- implode at 6-11 and Staley is fired LAR - bounce back to a 9-8 record and just miss wildcard MIA- Tua plays all 17 games and they go 11-6 winning a game in the wildcard NYG- luck smiles the opposite way as they go 7-10 and are never really close to being in the hunt at any point NYJ- make the playoffs as the final WC spot but get bounced in first round after blowing a 20-3 lead at halftime PHI- the NFC East finally sees a division winner repeat as the Eagles repeat but lose in the divisional round to Dallas at home PIT- The non losing season run ends as they go 6-11 as Pickett fails to take the next step and being in a tough division wrecks havoc as they finally finish 4th SEA- they win the NFC West and 1 seed at 12-5 SF- they make the playoffs but as a wild card as 10-7 as QB uncertainty finally catches them a little WSH- New ownership brings in a new era... but the results on the field are worse as they go 3-14 and end up picking 2nd in the draft 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chiefs and Niners as a SB isn't bold...but 15-2 ....that's not eactly the 11.5 Vegas has for the O/U.
